Disposable Goods

That's right, no such thing as Durable Goods anymore. Harder to find and/or quite a bit more expensive. You heard it here 1st, Disposable Goods is the way of the future and Durables are of the ages. Had a Kenmore Washing Machine just die, it lasted 38 years!!! Now that's Durable Goods, 70s vintage .. don't make 'em like that anymore.

BTW, the Dryer is still running (less moving parts) could go another 5-10 years, who knows...

Raw #'s includes everything (like transportation)

Actual for NOV : 0.7%
Briefing Cast : -0.2%
Market Expect : 0.2%
Prior Month : 1.1%
Revised from : 0.5%

The numbers are likely to go up in the future due to the amount of turnover and society accepting disposable thought processes.
